Implements `PortfolioBias` in EWPCM, CWPCM and IWPCM. With this new feature, these PCM will ignore insights that do not respect the desired bias. E.g. for `PortfolioBias.Long`, on Insights with `InsightDirection.Up` will be converted into `PortfolioTarget.Quantity` greater than zero and other `InsightDirection` will result in `PortfolioTarget.Quantity` of zero.
- Adding new unit test for python PCM implementations, asserting each
method is correctly called
- Reverting some unrequired changes in the
`MeanVarianceOptimizationFrameworkAlgorithm`
- Refactor shared logic from `EqualWeightingPortfolioConstructionModel`
into base `PortfolioConstructionModel` implementation
- `MeanVarianceOptimizationPortfolioConstructionModel` will respect
rebalancing period and will use all active inisights, not just the last
- Adding new `Func<DateTime, DateTime?>` that allows PCM to return null
if the next rebalance time is null, in which case the function will be
called again in the next loop.
- Adjusting PCM next rebalance time check to perform rebalance once the
time is reached
- Adding new regression test. Updating existing
- Moving InsightCollection into base `PortfolioConstructionModel`
- Will call `InsightCollection.GetNextExpiryTime()` on each check, and
for performance `InsightCollection` will keep track of next insight
expiry time
- Removing need for PCM base classes having to call `RefreshRebalance`
- Some refactor clean up at base
PortfolioConstructionModel.IsRebalanceDue()
- Refactoring some PCM methods to be `protected` since they are not required
to be public
- Adding new `PortfolioConstructionModel.RebalanceOnInsightChanges`
flag, that will allow avoiding new insights or insight expirations to
trigger a rebalance
- Updating unit tests
- Fix for the MeanVarianceOptimizationPortfolioConstructionModel that
was skipping, in some cases, 0 magnitude insights
- Add missing PCM constructor methods for the different supported
rebalancing periods overloads
- Normalize rebalance behavior in the base `PortfolioConstructionModel`
- Adding new `PortfolioConstructionModel.RebalanceOnSecurityChanges`
that will allow disabling rebalance on security changes
- Adding unit tests
- Adding new `AlgorithmSettings` Min and Max absolute portfolio target
percentage
- Adding new `PortfolioConstructionModel.FilterInvalidInsightMagnitude()`
helper method that will be used by the `BlackLitterman` and
`MeanVariance` optiomization portfolio construction models to skip
insights with extreme magnitudes that will cause exceptions
- `PortfolioTarget.Percentage()` will now verify requested percent is
withing the settings values
- Removing `using QCAlgorithmFramework = QuantConnect.Algorithm.QCAlgorithm`
- Removing `QCAlgorithmFrameworkBridge`
- Removing `IsFrameworkAlgorithm`
- Making `EmitInsightBasedOnFill` private. Adding new
`IOrderEventProvider` exposing an `event` to which `QCAlgorithm` will
subscribe.
- `AccountType.Cash` algorithms will be allowed to manually trade and
emight insights manually or with alpha model.
